Abstract

Seven factors are known to influence the fate and behavior of pesticides in soil systems: (1) chemical decomposition, (2) photochemical decomposition, (3) microbial decomposition, (4) volatilization, (5) movement, (6) plant or organism uptake, and (7) adsorption. The phenomenon of adsorption-desorption directly or indirectly influences the magnitude of the effect of the other six factors. Adsorption, therefore, appears to be one of the major factors affecting the interactions occurring between pesticides and soil colloids.
